View 1 RepliesI am curious as to whether there is improvement in a 4x HDD RAID 10 array vs an 8x HDD RAID 10 Array.
If so, Is it GREAT improvement?
With 1.5TB drives out now and 500GB and 1TB being dirt cheap, I still see that 80-120GB is standard on dedicated servers. If you want a 500Gig you will pay up the ***. Why is this? It's actually EASIER to buy a 500GB drive then a 120GB one nowdays.
I'm guessing it's because they still have tons of the lower space ones on site so it stops them from needing to buy new ones.
I have 2 questions:
1) I have one 80Gb HDD and one 250Gb HDD ( all are s-ata ).
In which practical way they should be partitioned? I thought to setup OS on 80Gb HDD and /home on 250Gb HDD.
2) Which version of CentOS is currently the most stable for cPanel? I had an experince with CentOS 5, there were various problems with mail and mysql.. And now I want to install CentOS 4.6.
The server will have CentOS and cPanel installed.
Just bought a new OEM 3ware 9500S-12 SATA RAID Controller from ebay for $250, is it a good deal? Does it work with SATA-II HDDs?
View 1 Replies View RelatedEverything I found is the type of RAID controller installed. It's Adaptec 4800SAS SA-SCSI RAID-10. Nothing in /proc about types of HDDs.

I'd prefer something from Canada.
I just thought of it, 4 drives on RAID 0 might not be a good idea ... Should I opt for RAID 5?
I've only tried whmsonic shoutcast admin pro to create sc accounts
I used whm to create cpanel hosting accounts before so had an idea.
With whmsonic admin pro i was a bit lost, creating cpanel hosting
accounts so i could ad those features to shoutcst accounts
But from what i've read, cast control is more straight to the point
You don't need to be creatings cpanel accounts first etc etc.
Is there others that any of you have on your servers for setting
up shoutcast accounts with hosting for uploading audio files ect
Autodj and so on.
If we go for a RAID controller either RAID 1 or RAID 5, then which is the best option, hardware raid controller or software raid controller?

I'm used to 3dm controller, that I can access using HTTP, configure to send E-mail if one HDD shows error, and so on
now I'm using a FreeBSD server with RocketRAID RAID controller
anyone knows if it's possible to do the same as 3dm?
Anyone use Hosting Controller 7.0 software?
I am having a problem with HC7 about import from a website that is existing(include DNS and Mail ) in Server into HC7 to manage.
But when i have imported it then it only can import website. Mail Domain and DNS of those website cannot import.
We had one of RAID controllers failed on our IBM RS/6000 server. There are two RAID controllers on this server, one holds the OS (AIX) and the other one holds our database and this is the one that failed.
Anyway, I've always thought that once a RAID controller failed and we put in a replacement controller, it will reformat all the hard drives that were connected to the failed controller, which means we would have to restore the data from backup once the new controller is in place. However, the IBM technician we dispatched was able to build the new controller and connect all the drives to the new controller without reformatting the drives. I think he copied the RAID controller's configurations using SMIT. I think that was amazing; it saved us a lot of time.
My question is, is this something unique to IBM hardware/AIX or other hardware and OSes (Linux, Windows, etc.) have similar capability?
I installed a HC7 software that is manage host to provide my company 's customer. I have a problem with Mail Server is MDaemon, it cannot connect HC7 while Database Server, DNS server and Webserver are connected.
All things r ok except of MDamon. Exactly, I cannot create/add mail domain in HC7 for the website is created. However, when i opened MDaemon interface to check then i recognize mail domain with same name as webise that i have created in HC7. i return HC7, add mail domain for that website again. Result, it occur errror : Unable to create user.
MDaemon of tray icon is blue , is it right configure?
I am looking for a cheap sata controller that can do JBOD with a PCI Express interface(preferably low profile, 2U server) and proper driver support for linux and solaris. The cheapeast one I found is from supermicro but I don't think they can be used in non-supermicro servers. Any suggestions?

Quote:
3w-9xxx: scsi0: AEN: INFO (0x04:0x0053): Battery capacity test is overdue:.
When I'm in the CLI console (tw_cli) and tries to test the battery, I'm seeing the following:
Quote:

Depending on the Storsave setting, performing the battery capacity test may
disable the write cache on the controller /c0 for up to 24 hours.
Do you want to continue ? Y|N [N]:
This is a live production server with client VPSs on it. Anyone here actually did 3ware battery test before on production system? Is it ok to do this? I'm seeking someone actually performed test operation before, not from someone just assumes it will be ok.
I have a 3ware 9650SE-24M8 RAID Controller. It was working fine for a few days and today while I was changing the RAID configs and installing different OSs, it just stopped working. Now when I boot my machine up it does not even detect any hard drives or RAID controller. I looked inside the box and the LED light on the RAID controller that is usually solid green is now blinking red. I googled for solutions but all searches lead me to useless information such as blinking red lights on the server case.

My raid controller is Areca 1160 + 1GB Ram + 16xWD4000YS. Initially I had the problem of the disk dropping from the array randomly. I suppose this problem has been fixed since I have upgraded disks firmware according to WDC suggestion.
But there's another problem now. From my observation, the controller is randomly dropped off the system. When this happen, I cannot read/write anything from the disk at all. I can SSH in and able to run Areca CLI tool to see what's going on but only to get the message saying that it cannot find any Areca controller.
My only option is to restart the server and fsck all those 16 disks (not fun). I checked the log on the RAID controller itself, there was no sign of problem at all. No alert, no disk being dropped off the array, no events logged at all.
I'm using CentOS 4.3. Firmware on the RAID controller is 1.41, latest is 1.42. (Stupid me for not upgrading firmware when server crashed.) I plan to take the server down for RAID firmware upgrade soon. I just hoped that it's just problem with the firmware, not the controller or backplane itself.
We have a domain portal controller for windows. All the machines in the n/w are connected to it. So, when ever an user enters the user name and password it gets authenticated from the domain portal controller. So, my login can be accessed anywhere in the netowrk.
Example : my login is sabarishks which can be used in any machine under this domain controller.
But, if the system is installed with both linux and windows only windows username will be authenticated using the domain controller. Whereas, the linux users will work with in the system using /etc/shadow file. Hope, I am clear so far.
The requirement is same as above. The authentication mechanism for linux should work as windows. When ever an user is entered with a username and passwd, it should get authenticated from domain controller.
I mean, the user created in a windows machine should be used for linux login also. More importantly, It should work in all systems.
Which technology can be used to do this? Samba,Ldap, NFs or what?
if anyone knows of any shared hosting company that supports the out-of-the-box Model-View-Controller (MVC) asp.net template and which version (the latest at the moment is Preview 5).
Moreover, does it support .net 3.5 with sp1, IIS7, SQL 2005 and ajax control tookit?
we've been testing CentOS 5.3 on Intel DG35EC board (G35+ICH8+82566 Gb NIC), and found that the write speed out of 7200rpm SATA-II drive, connected to on-board ICH8 controller, is consistently under 10MB/sec which is quite horrible!
the same set of hardware can get 100MB+/sec transfer rate with Debian 5.0 and FreeBSD 7.1, just not the CentOS5.3! it doesn't matter whether AHCI mode is selected in BIOS or not, and of course BIOS has been updated with latest version.
